Title: Device for rebalancing the fields of coherence of molecules of fluid in circulation comprises magnetic field emitter containing magnetic circuit to channel the magnetic flux
Inventor: DUVEAU YVES
IPC: B01J19/08
Filed: 1998-08-13
Abstract: A first magnetic means comprising a  magnetic field emitter (1) is pressed against the wall of a pipe (5) of non-magnetic material. The magnetic field emitter contains a magnetic circuit (2) designed to channel the magnetic flux so the lines of force surround fluid flowing through the pipe over an appropriate length. A second, unformed, means records the data transmitted.  The field is designed to act on the orientation of the electron spin on the atoms in the molecules of the fluid circulating in the pipe. The second means, called unformed, acts with the first means and includes particles or crystals which record the data transmitted so the correct signals are permanently emitted. The magnetic field emitter is a permanent magnet, preferably parallelepiped, placed between two fins (10, 11) of a magnetic circuit in folded ferrous sheet metal (2) with low carbon content, to concentrate the lines of force. The space (12, 13) between the fins is larger than the corresponding dimension of the magnet, to form two longitudinal clearance zones, with the height of each fin is less than the corresponding height of the magnet to favor the creation of a shape adapted to the external part of the magnetic spectrum. At least two magnetic field emitters are pressed against the pipe. The magnetic field emitter is electromagnetic. The unformed means is made of rare earths, lanthanum or lanthanides, or of clay including quartz crystals, or a thermoplastic to record data.

Title: Heat exchanger with flexible tubes
Inventor: MARTINS CARLOS MANUEL
IPC: F28F1/08
Filed: 1999-12-23
Abstract: The invention concerns a heat exchanger (2) with flexible tubes (20), particularly for a motor vehicle cooling installation. The tubes (20), for example made of a plastic material, are designed to carry a heat-exchanging fluid capable of co-operating with an air stream circulating through the exchanger (2). The inventive exchanger (2) comprises means for maintaining the tubes (20) in parallel rows. The tubes (20) are designed to be generally shaped like substantially sinusoidal lines. The sinusoids of two contacting tubes (211, 212) of two consecutive rows, are phase offset relatively to each other such that the two tubes (211, 212) are maintained in two contact zones (210) per sinusoid interval, thereby leaving interstices between the tubes (20) to enhance the penetration of the flux.

Title: Data compression for colour images using wavelet transform
Inventor: DUCKSBURY PAUL GERARD
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2003-04-09
Abstract: The invention describes a wavelet compression method for colour converted image planes (Y, Cb and Cr), wherein a relatively low (e.g. zero) degree of compression is performed in areas of an original colour image having relatively higher importance, and a relatively higher degree of compression in those areas indicated to be of lower importance. It performs a hierarchical encoding of a reduced wavelet image by discarding wavelet coefficients which satisfy the two criteria of firstly corresponding to image areas of relatively lower importance and secondly being below a certain wavelet coefficient threshold. The wavelet coefficient threshold is determined from a calculation of cumulative histogram to remove a percentage of the image and can be specified as an input parameter by a user.

Title: Echantillonneur de liquide et procede
Inventor: SMETHAM GRANT TIMOTHY LEWIS
IPC: G01N33/493
Filed: 2003-07-25
Abstract: L'invention concerne un échantillonneur de liquide permettant d'échantillonner une première partie de flux de liquide, ce flux pénétrant par une admission (12). L'échantillon traverse une valve (30) pour pénétrer dans une chambre d'échantillon (8) puis la valve se ferme, et le reste du flux est dévié vers un trop-plein (6). La valve comprend une entrée (24) couplée à l'admission de l'échantillonneur, une sortie (38, 36) débouchant dans la chambre d'échantillon et placée, à l'utilisation, sensiblement sous l'entrée considérée, une chambre de fermeture (32) séparant cette sortie de l'entrée en question, et un trop-plein (34) allant de ladite chambre de fermeture au trop-plein (6) de l'échantillonneur. Lorsque le niveau de liquide dans la chambre d'échantillon augmente pour atteindre un niveau préétabli, le flux de liquide à travers la sortie de valve est interrompu, et le flux ultérieur à travers l'entrée de valve est dévié dans la chambre de fermeture et à travers le trop-plein de valve.

Patent WO-2004054644-A1 (WO)
Title: Hollow needle applicators
Inventor: JEFFREY PETER
IPC: A61M5/24
Filed: 2003-12-12
Abstract: A fluid filled cartridge (110) having a fixed needle (107) and a piston assembly (111, 131, 133) for expression of its contents (112) is mounted inside an applicator (101). In order to extend the needle (107) from the body (101) prior to cartridge contents expression and without premature leakage of fluid therefrom, an actuator (120), which may be operated by spring (125) or manually, is mounted in the body to drive the cartridge forwards. This is accomplished by co-operating driving (126) and driven (110E) parts of the actuator and the cartridge (or any carrier it may have) which are decoupled by release formations, e.g. triggering extensions (128), in the applicator body (101) after the cartridge (110) has been moved sufficiently to extend the needle (107). Specifically, the driving part (126E) may be deflected outwardly by the triggering extension (128). The applicator (100) may also include provision, including, for example, forwardly mounted spring (113), for automatic needle retraction after cartridge contents expression. This may be accomplished by further driving extensions (132) on the actuator (120) being released, e.g. by the action of trigger rod (133), from their drive coupling with parts (131E) of the piston rod, e.g. by outward deflection of the latter, after the piston (111) has been depressed a sufficient distance to express the contents (112). A separate inventive feature is the deformability of the piston (111) so that force transmission to the trigger means (133) to initiate needle retraction only occurs upon full content expression when the piston has “bottomed out” within the cartridge (110).

Title: Data storage devices
Inventor: SAINT GEORGE
IPC: G11B27/32
Filed: 1983-11-29
Abstract: To provide a data store in which a data carrier (T) can hold a vast quantity of data and give rapid access, a format of parallel tracks is used each starting with a unique track identity number and a unique relationship to one or more longitudinal control tracks (B, C) which provide for high speed mode search, and low speed mode location, using video tape-recording servo-systems to surprising advantage. Coarse location of a required group of tracks may be provided by coded signal sequences on one control track (B1) and invididual tracks identified by coded signal sequence in a further longitudinal control track (B2). In one embodiment only the control track passes a reading head in the high speed mode, and in the slow mode the carrier is wound to half embrace a helical scanning drum carrying a plurality of heads. Read only devices may be provided for use as a reference source in library or computer installations possibly with multi-user and/or multi-bus facilities. Where required provision may be included for recording and/or read-out of stored data, but the control track sequence is preferably pre-recorded and constant. The data carrier can be in a preferred embodiment, a flexible tape in a cassette, but open reel-to-reel systems, short strips semi-rigid cards or rigid plates or drums can be used. The recording method can be magnetic or one of a variety of optical systems, and the data may be computer data, text, graphics video, or any combination thereof.
